Windows Performance Monitoring Fundamentals provides IT Professionals and Application Developers with a foundation for understanding and analyzing Windows performance issues. The course begins with an introduction to performance monitoring and the strategies that are used to identify system bottlenecks. Subsequent modules introduce various tasks associated with performance monitoring and the recommended tools that are used for analyzing key metrics. From quick and easy monitoring of key system metrics with the Task Manager and Resource Monitor, to more detailed monitoring in the background with Perfmon and the Windows Performance Toolkit, a steady progression of course material is presented in an engaging fashion. The final module provides guidance on the best practices used to recognize performance metrics that are exceeding thresholds and the recommended actions to take.
